Story of Goal Setting
In 1984 of the Tokyo International Marathon, one Japanese athlete Yamada unexpectedly won the world championship.
Reporters asked him his secret of success, he said that: ”I use wisdom to defeat opponent." Many people didn’t believe him.
Marathon is the sport requires both physical strength and endurance. He said that wisdom led to his success seems reluctantly.
Two years later, Yamada Italian International Marathon championship again.
A reporter asked him secret of his success.
Yamada answered the reporter the same as last time:" I use wisdom to defeat opponent." Everyone was puzzled by his so-called wisdom.
Yamada in his autobiography he says:" Before each game, I will travel the whole route and check it carefully.
I will mark some important signs alone the road, such as the first mark is a bank, the second mark is a tree, and the third mark is a red house, thus mark to the end.
Ten years later, the mystery is finally discovered.
When the race begins, I run as fast as I can towards the 1st goal, the bank. When I arrive at the bank, I will strive for the 2nd goal, the tree.
I break the whole marathon route into many small goals and finish them one by one easily.
If I had set my goal at the end of the 40 kilometers then I would be exhausted in the first 10 kilometers because I am scared by the remote distance."
This story gives us a lot of inspiration. You can learn a lot from it.
A great dream can be achieved through many small goals. These small goals are your short term goals.
Sometimes we fail not because the goal is too hard, it is that we don't break the long term goal into several small goals. So we feel that success is too far away.
Failures???
Stepping stone to success
